Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette technology, specifically an automatic cigarette marketing broadcasting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the tobacco industry, the pace of cigarette product updates and iterations continues to accelerate. Statistics show that the number of new product specifications launched by major tobacco companies each year is increasing year by year. These new products often feature differentiated brand positioning, processing characteristics, and taste profiles. At the same time, with the increasing health awareness of consumers and the diversification of market demands, retail outlets face the dual pressure of accurately conveying product features while also meeting consumers' personalized consultation needs.

[0003] As a crucial link between production and consumption, the quality of marketing services at retail outlets directly impacts the market acceptance of new cigarette products. However, due to the large volume and frequent updates of product information, retail customers generally suffer from incomplete memory of new product information and unsystematic presentations. Especially during peak hours, store staff often struggle to provide detailed product explanations to every customer, which not only diminishes the shopping experience but may also lead to missed sales opportunities. Traditional solutions such as paper brochures or electronic displays have limitations, including insufficient interactivity and limited information delivery efficiency, making it difficult to accurately deliver product information. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the above problems, thereby providing a highly interactive automatic cigarette marketing broadcasting machine.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the aforementioned problem is:

[0006] An automatic cigarette marketing broadcasting machine includes a display box with a front opening, a placement box at the bottom of the inner cavity of the display box, a back plate in the middle of the placement box, a metal sheet passing through the bottom of the back plate, a power supply connected to the metal sheet at the rear of the display box, a broadcaster inside the placement box and located on the side of the back plate, and a flexible contact switch connected to the broadcaster. The free end of the flexible contact switch is in a normally closed contact state with the side of the metal sheet near the opening of the display box.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the outstanding features of this utility model, which adopts the above technical solution, are:

[0008] The integrated mechanical triggering system within the display case effectively addresses the shortcomings of traditional retail marketing methods. When an interested customer takes out a cigarette product, its metal plate contacts a spring-loaded switch, triggering the announcer. This solves the problem of outdated paper brochures and overcomes the lack of interactivity in electronic displays. When the customer or merchant puts the cigarette product back, the metal plate disconnects from the spring-loaded switch, stopping the announcer. This physical triggering method ensures system stability, unaffected by environmental electromagnetic interference. Compared to sensor-based devices, it is more suitable for the tobacco retail environment. The automated product introduction function reduces the service pressure on staff during peak hours, and the standardized voice announcements avoid information omissions or inaccuracies that may occur with manual introductions, helping to improve consumers' understanding of cigarette product characteristics and their purchasing experience.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a further technical solution of this utility model is:

[0010] Furthermore, the top surface of the metal sheet is provided with an insulating coating, which ensures that the broadcast can only be triggered by contact with the side of the metal sheet near the opening of the display case, while avoiding poor contact caused by metal oxidation and extending the service life of the triggering mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, several first mounting slots are spaced apart on the bottom surface of the box, and the bottom of the back panel can be detached and placed in the first mounting slots. The spacing of the first mounting slots allows the position of the back panel to be adjusted according to the cigarette specifications, so that cigarette packs of different thicknesses can be stably placed inside. The detachable design facilitates cleaning and maintenance and is adapted to the high dust characteristics of the tobacco retail environment.

[0012] Furthermore, a limiting plate is provided on the side of the back panel away from the announcer, which is used in conjunction with the elastic contact switch. Several second mounting slots are spaced apart on the bottom surface of the box for the limiting plate to be inserted. The limiting plate is located on the side of the cigarette packaging to limit the movement and prevent the elastic contact switch from pushing the cigarette away. The modular slot design allows the system to adapt to the width specifications of various cigarette packaging, improving the equipment's compatibility with different brands of cigarettes.

[0013] Furthermore, the free end of the flexible contact switch protrudes 3-7mm from the metal plate plane, ensuring that the flexible contact switch can be easily pushed outward when the cigarette pack is inserted. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, the purpose of which is only to better understand the content of the present invention. Therefore, the examples given do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] An automatic cigarette marketing broadcasting machine includes a display box 1 with a front opening, a placement box 2 located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the display box 1, and both the display box 1 and the placement box 2 are made of flame-retardant ABS material. A back panel 3 is located in the middle of the placement box 2, and a metal sheet 4 passes through the bottom of the back panel 3. A power supply 5 connected to the metal sheet 4 is located at the rear of the display box 1. The power supply 5 is a DC power supply powered by a 3.7V lithium battery. A broadcaster 6 is located inside the placement box 2 and to the side of the back panel 3. The broadcaster 6 is a common industrial-grade voice module (model ISD1820PY), with a built-in storage chip supporting voice content updates via a USB interface. The audio output power is 0.5W-1W. The broadcaster 6 is powered on via a flexible contact. Switch 7, the elastic contact switch 7 is made of phosphor bronze. The free end of the elastic contact switch 7 is in a normally closed contact with the side of the metal piece 4 near the opening of the display box 1. The elastic contact piece applies a contact pressure of 0.5-1N to the metal piece 4. When the cigarette pack is taken out, the elastic contact switch 7 resets due to the loss of pressure, and its free end contacts the side of the metal piece 4 to form a closed circuit, triggering the voice control module to work. When the cigarette pack is inserted, the side wall of the pack squeezes the elastic contact switch 7 to separate it from the metal piece 4, the circuit is broken and the broadcast stops. Multiple placement boxes 2 can be placed side by side along the length of the display box 1, and customers can take one of the cigarettes in the placement box 2 at a time to learn about it.

[0019] Furthermore, the top surface of the metal sheet 4 is provided with an insulating coating. The insulating coating on the top surface of the metal sheet 4 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material with a thickness of 0.1-0.3mm. This ensures that the broadcast can only be triggered by contact with the side of the metal sheet 4 near the opening of the display box 1, while avoiding poor contact caused by metal oxidation and extending the service life of the triggering mechanism.

[0020] Furthermore, several first mounting slots 8 are spaced apart on the bottom surface of the placement box 2. The bottom of the back plate 3 can be detachably placed in the first mounting slots 8. The spacing of the first mounting slots 8 allows the position of the back plate 3 to be adjusted according to the cigarette specifications, so that cigarette packaging of different thicknesses can be stably placed inside. The detachable design facilitates cleaning and maintenance and is adapted to the high dust characteristics of the tobacco retail environment.

[0021] Furthermore, a limiting plate 10 is provided on the side of the back plate 3 away from the announcer 6, which is used in conjunction with the elastic contact switch 7. Several second mounting slots 9 are spaced apart on the bottom surface of the placement box 2 for the limiting plate 10 to be inserted. The limiting plate 10 is located on the side of the cigarette packaging to limit the movement and prevent the elastic contact switch 7 from pushing the cigarette away. The modular slot design allows the system to adapt to the width specifications of various cigarette packaging, improving the compatibility of the equipment with different brands of cigarettes.

[0022] Furthermore, the free end of the elastic contact switch 7 protrudes 3-7mm from the plane of the metal sheet 4, and the limiting plate 10 maintains a gap of 1-2mm with the cigarette packaging, which ensures the limiting effect without affecting the picking and putting. This ensures that when the cigarette packaging is inserted, the side of the cigarette packaging closest to the elastic contact switch 7 is tilted first and the elastic contact switch 7 is pushed outward, making it easy to push the elastic contact switch 7 outward.

[0023] When a consumer removes a cigarette pack from display case 1, the elastic contact switch 7 automatically rebounds due to its elastic reset characteristic. Its free end protrudes 3-7mm from the plane of the metal plate 4, ensuring reliable contact with the side of the metal plate 4 to form a closed circuit, triggering the announcer 6. This physical contact triggering method overcomes the lack of interactivity in traditional electronic screen displays. When the cigarette pack is returned, the side wall of the pack first tilts to contact the elastic contact switch 7 and pushes it outwards 3-7mm, causing the contact point to separate, breaking the circuit and stopping the announcement. This mechanical triggering system solves the problem of delayed updates to paper brochures. The top surface of the metal plate 4, which is inserted through the bottom of the back panel 3, has a 0.1-0.3mm polytetrafluoroethylene insulating coating, ensuring that only side contact triggers the announcement and preventing poor contact caused by metal oxidation. Standardized mounting slots spaced at intervals on the bottom surface of the placement box 2 allow the back panel 3 and the limiting plate 10 to be detachable and adjustable. This modular design adapts to the display needs of cigarette packs of different thicknesses, significantly improving the consumer's shopping experience and product awareness.
